I went to Henry late last year for some shoulder treatment. He's extremely thorough in not only…read moreproviding treatment and strengthening exercises, but also provides details on potential causes. Taking my son in for hip flexor strain treatment.

I came to see Henry because I have been experiencing a lot of muscle pain, along with nerve pain. I…read morethought a good massage therapist could help me manage this pain. Sadly, I got no help from Henry and was left highly disappointed and upset with my experience. The first time I saw Henry, he attempted to misdiagnose me with fibromyalgia when I clarified I had already been to see licensed medical professionals and was in the process of being tested, and no one had diagnosed me with it. It made me uncomfortable that he disregarded this information and jumped to this conclusion so quickly and arrogantly. He minimized my pain by making one of the most unprofessional comments I have ever heard, by insinuating that I could not actually be in a lot pain because I had never done sports. According to him, only people who have done sports in their life and gotten injured truly know pain. Why should I have to prove to you Henry that I feel pain? What about people with various other illnesses? Are they not allowed to feel pain because they haven't done sports? I came to you to help manage my pain, not to be medically gaslit. Henry continued to make various unprofessional comments during this appointment, not only asking me if I planned to have children, but more specifically HOW I planned to have children. Excuse me? Do you think it is appropriate to ask women about their fertility issues while they are trying to get a massage from you Henry? Because of his inappropriate comments, I stayed mostly quiet throughout this appointment because of how highly uncomfortable I was made to feel. I gave this man the benefit of the doubt by going to him a second time because I was DESPERATE for a good massage therapist. I regretted that decision very quickly. During my second appt Henry refused to continue to provide his services to me because I was honest on how his method of PEMF had caused me pain. Also, not once did I receive a proper massage, because my time was wasted with random breathing exercises or the PEMF. His reasonings for not wanting to help me were that he did not think his methods would help my nerve pain, but this was clearly bs. Again I paid for a MASSAGE, not what you were trying to sell me. If this is the type of treatment you are forcing onto your clients, that should be made clear on your website so nobody wastes their time like I did. If you choose you don't like one of his treatment methods, he will not only REFUSE to accommodate you, he will also "fire" you as a client. Also, by the way Henry, have you ever heard of INFORMED CONSENT ? I had specifically communicated to you at the beginning of my second session that I wanted to know what to expect during this appointment, but was blatantly ignored. I was not given any information about this PEMF technique prior to him using it on me. He only explained what this PEMF was AFTER he had begun using it on me. His disregard for my consent not only made me very uncomfortable, but resulted in my back pain worsening. I could go on and on about the complete lack of respect Henry had with me, including a complete lack of bedside manners and unprofessionalism. I was never once rude to Henry or unprofessional with him to merit this type of treatment. I sincerely hope Henry that you become more self aware to the things you say to your clients who are in a vulnerable state and are coming to see you for help, NOT to be gaslit, mistreated, and disrespected, like you were with me.

They somehow manage to push me without making me feel overwhelmed, and they've helped me get stronger and more confident in what my body can do. Every visit feels personalized, not like they're just running me through the same routine as everyone else. What I appreciate most is that they focus on getting you back to real life. Because of their help, I'm back in the gym, doing hula, line dancing, and working toward my running goals. They celebrate the wins with you but also keep you accountable when it's time to do the work. The atmosphere is friendly, encouraging, and professional. If you're willing to put in the effort, Rob and Roger will absolutely help you get where you want to be. Thank you both for helping me realize I'm apparently more active than I thought I was.

My kids play soccer, baseball, basketball, and football, and with any injury, SSR is the first (and only) place I take them. I know without a doubt that they will properly identify the issue, treat it correctly, and get my kids back to playing safely and confidently. The owners, Ryan and Roger, are completely hands-on and truly the best in the business. You can tell they care deeply about every athlete that walks through the door. On top of that, every single staff member is knowledgeable, professional, and clearly passionate about what they do. The environment is another huge win. There's always a great vibe--choice music playing or live sports on the TV, sometimes even featuring their own clients competing, which is incredibly motivating and fun. It feels energetic, positive, and never like a boring or intimidating physical therapy clinic. What really sets SSR apart is how they treat people. Everyone treats you like family. From the moment you walk in, you're greeted with a warm "what's up." The **front desk crew--Tina and Wit are awesome--**and everyone in the back makes you feel welcome and cared for every single visit. I'm also extremely grateful they opened a La Verne location, as it's so much closer for us than the Corona spot. The convenience alone is huge, but the quality remains top-tier. SSR is the perfect combination of elite knowledge, hands-on care, and a fun environment that athletes actually enjoy. Who knew physical therapy could be so fun? Highly recommend to any parent or athlete looking for the best.

I was referred here by Kaiser for a nail avulsion. Dr Kamal very friendly, knowledgeable, highly educated with 10/10 bedside manners. Thank you.

If I could give Dr. Sachin Patel and Garey Orthopedic zero stars, I would…read more My brother was referred to Dr. Patel directly from urgent care because he was experiencing excruciating neck and shoulder pain. His arm and hand had gone completely numb, and he was in so much pain that he could barely sit still. Throughout the appointment he was visibly writhing in pain. The urgent care physician had already done what they could and referred him to an orthopedic specialist because they believed he needed further evaluation and treatment. Even though Garey Orthopedic was able to get him in relatively quickly, it still took several agonizing days for the appointment while my brother continued to suffer. At the time, we were grateful to be seen sooner than expected. Looking back after our experience, I couldn't help but wonder whether the availability had less to do with efficiency and more to do with patients choosing not to return to this place. We walked into this appointment expecting expertise, answers, and, at the very least, compassion. Instead, we were met with one of the most cold, dismissive, and uncaring physicians I have ever encountered. Dr. Patel came into the room, asked my brother what was wrong, and while briefly checking his grip strength, asked when the symptoms began. Within just a few minutes he said my brother needed an MRI and then asked, "Are you open to an MRI?" We found that question baffling. We weren't there to decide for ourselves what diagnostic tests should be performed. We were referred to an orthopedic specialist because we expected a physician to evaluate him and determine the appropriate course of action. The most upsetting part of the visit came when we asked what could be done to help manage my brother's unbearable pain while waiting for the MRI. Dr. Patel's response was simply, "Go to the ER." We asked if Garey Orthopedic did not treat pain, and he again replied, "No. Go to the ER." There was no explanation other than an arrogant response the he is a surgeon and if my brother came looking for pain relief he couldnt help him. No discussion of why that was his recommendation. No acknowledgment that the patient sitting directly in front of him was in obvious agony. No empathy. No compassion. Every response felt abrupt, irritated, and dismissive, as though our questions were an inconvenience. I understand that physicians have limits on what they can prescribe or treat. If Dr. Patel believed the emergency room was the appropriate place for pain management, that could have been explained with professionalism and compassion. Instead, his demeanor conveyed complete indifference to someone who was clearly suffering. Later, we asked the nurse if he could be referred to a pain management doctor and she was able to give us a couple of names. At this point however, I don't think I would take that their referral for anything. We accepted the MRI referral because it was necessary, my brother paid his copay, and left. Before we were even out of the parking lot, we had already decided my brother would never return to Dr. Patel. We immediately began looking for another orthopedic physician because we had absolutely no confidence that someone with so little compassion was the right person to oversee his care. A physician's responsibility extends beyond ordering tests. Patients deserve to be heard, informed, and treated with dignity, especially when they are in obvious distress. My brother came to this appointment desperate for help. He left feeling dismissed, unheard, and no closer to finding relief. After reading many of the other reviews, I now understand that our experience was not unique. I only wish I had read them before scheduling this appointment. If you are looking for an orthopedic physician who listens, communicates, and treats patients with compassion, our experience with Dr. Patel was the complete opposite. I cannot recommend Dr. Patel or Garey Orthopedic based on the way my brother was treated.

They dont coddle you but make sure to push just enough to make sure you are getting exactly what you need to get better.

I am confident I will get to my goal, With the help of Julia and their team, but to be honest I am going to miss going here and seeing the PT family I have made. Everyone here is great. It sucks to need rehab because that means you injured something BUT there is no better place to go if you need PT.

The level of professionalism, compassion, and patient care that I appreciated was completely lacking. The staff seemed indifferent, and I did not feel valued as a patient. In addition, the front office was rude and unprofessional, which made the experience even more frustrating. Unfortunately, I am not the only one who feels this way. Several friends of mine who were also long-time patients stopped going to Covina Sports Medicine for the same reason. It is very disappointing to see such a decline in the quality of service at a facility I once trusted and recommend to others.

The type and quality of care is spot on…read more Thank you doctor and staff.

First off, I'm not one to leave a review because I believe the service you get speaks for itself…read more Being a health care professional myself for over 40+years working in the field from level of care to supervisory gives me a great amount of experience to provide a through review. First the office staff are very professional and accommodating, next the clinic staff who takes your vitals are professional and ensure they use universal precautions to ensure there are no cross contamination from patient to patient. This is a biggie for me when it comes to doctor offices. Last, Dr. Rishi Majithia. This is my fourth appointment seeing him. I was recommended to him by my daughter in law who is a medical professional. I was initially very skeptical because doctors now days care more about money than the care they provide. Dr. Majithia, my first appointment he listened to my complaints and concerns, gave his feed back, made slight recommendations and genuinely seem as if he cared. By my second appointment he actually was able to repeat some of the concerns from the previous appt and made excellent recommendation. This let me know he actually was listening and taking appropriate notes the first appointment. By my third appointment he addressed all my medical concerns, started me on new meds which we both agreed, made legitimate realistic goals for me to follow and seemed as if he really cared about my well being. Again he was able to recite all my previous complaints from the past appointments. ((He really Listens). Today, I had my fourth appt. I can now say I have found a provider who is knowledgeable, competent, up to date with society and current medical trends. Knowledgeable of Diabetes, and is genuinely concerned about his patients. Seems he has a passion for his profession. When he took his Oath to be a doctor to care for patients he did it because he wanted to see a change in people and he care about people's health. If your looking for a doctor who cares about his patient's, current on medical knowledge, doesn't rush you during appointments, listens, there is no need to go further. Dr. Rishi Majithia is an excellent choice!
